Erewhon Revisited: Twenty Years Later, Both by the Original Discoverer of the Country and by His Son

Higgs returns to Erewhon twenty years after escaping by balloon, and finds that his ascent has become a religion — Sunchildism — with temples, a priesthood, relics and a professional interest in his never coming back. Butler quarrelled with his clergyman father, made money farming sheep in New Zealand, and spent the rest of his life attacking respectable opinion; this 1901 sequel is his coldest joke about how religions are actually made.
